INFORMATION UPDATES:
We keep in touch with all of our camp families both in advance and during the camp session. Parents / guardians receive a confirmation email immediately following registration. A second email detailing pick-up / drop-off instructions, and any required health forms / health protocols will follow 1 month in advance of your registered camp. During the week, pictures and daily updates are posted on camp's FACEBOOK PAGE. At the end of the week, a card that shares some of each camper's individual progress is available to parents / guardians and campers.
Debate Day Camp is exceedingly popular and most locations fill to capacity. In keeping with our 1:8 staffing ratio most camps are only able to fit in a limited number of campers. We recommend registering early!
